  The GBTC Bitcoin Investment Trust ETF is a popular choice for investors who want exposure to Bitcoin but prefer the convenience and familiarity of traditional investment vehicles. It provides a way to invest in Bitcoin through a regulated and transparent vehicle, without the need to navigate the complexities of cryptocurrency exchanges. The trust holds a significant amount of Bitcoin, and the value of its shares is directly tied to the price of Bitcoin. This means that as the price of Bitcoin fluctuates, so does the value of the shares.
